Re: Finally listened to the Aura Tweeters

DesertHeat: Well, I had not been able to test them for a month, I figured if I'm not willing to test them in that amount of time, it's my own d@mn problem. I'll test it more thouroughly and if it really is blown, and not something stupid like a loose wire, I'll contact you.

Re: Finally listened to the Aura Tweeters

Yeah, those Aura silk dome tweets are outstanding. They're bright and airy but certainly not shrill or brittle. I knew the moment I heard them in Aura's booth at Fuse '98(in Atlantic City) that they were just what I had been looking for. Many people(particularily the younger guys) aren't familiar with Aura but their gear was top-notch...a sleeper in this industry.

Aura is still around but the original company was bought by another outfit. For some reason the new company seems to concentrate their efforts on high-end subs and they've kinda forgotten about the reputation of Aura's legendary Mobile Reference comp sets. Their subs look nasty but they're too rich for my blood

Re: Finally listened to the Aura Tweeters

The tweeters are very smooth. Aura makes good ****, to be blunt. Power handling.. well, does it matter for a tweeter that's already probably 104 db efficient? I'd say attach them to your crossover and don't worry about the power handling.

Ok, I understand they're efficient and smoothe. But I need to know a few more things if you don't mind.
